Build in public

## Built by a trader. Used in the open.

Zain builds Pipcue, and he is recording his own trading on it in public: the alerts he runs, the rules he sets, the journal he keeps, and how it goes. Good days and bad ones.

The name

## A pip, then a cue

A **pip** is the unit every forex trader counts in. A **cue** is the signal to act. Your TradingView alert is the cue, and Pipcue turns it into the trade.

The mark says the same thing: a dot, then a chevron to go, on an ink tile. Everything else in Pipcue is ink and grey. Green and red are kept for one job: profit and loss.

### Ground rules

It is one trader's record, not advice and not signals to copy. Trading carries a risk of loss, with or without good tools.
